My son wrote me a card that said this: "I loav you, Mom. You're the beast!" Nothing sums me up better. Welcome to the Beast Mom blog!

Rosetta Stone Fun

My mother-in-law sent us a Rosetta Stone program for learning the Korean language. Our kids have been having a fun time with it. They put on the headset and speak into it to practice Korean words. I’ve tried it too and thought the program was fun to use. I can’t say yet if I think it’s an effective way to learn Korean or not. We’re still too new at it to really evaluate that far. But it’s certainly been fun to see the kids try to pronouce vocabulary words. It’s even more entertaining to hear them try longer phrases and sentences. I just crack up listening to them. But then again, when I say the same phrases and sentences, I don’t sound much better.

We have a LONG way to go to really learn Korean. But hey, it’s a start!
